Women Food and God: An Unexpected Path to Almost Everything Audiobook

" Mmmmm...a lot of stuff I've heard before. Yes, I know I don't always eat because I'm truly hungry. Who does? "

" I really enjoyed this book, and I'm not really a fan of self-help books. This book really opened my eyes to some of the compulsions and obsessions that people (particularly women) have with food. I would recommend this book to any women. "

" This was the first time someone, or anything, understood my obsessions and compulsions with food. While some of the text did make me squirm, the author, for me, touched a place that no therapist has ever been able to. I keep this book on my kindle and read a few passages each day. For the past several weeks my thought patterns about food have shifted and I remain hopeful. "

" Took me a year to read half the book and 10 minutes to skim the rest. Relatively uninteresting and, frankly, totally self involved. Glad it's over!! "

" It was ok. Had some good parts.... "

" 200 page advertisement for her retreats. This book is full of contradictions, and is a hodgepodge of theories with no coherent vein. oh and ONE chapter on spirituality. bollocks. "

" This book is the voice for the struggle I go through every day! I'm finally realizing that there isn't a magic pill or diet. Instead I need to look inwards. Great for anyone dealing with eating, weight, or just self-esteem. Whether you agree with her or not, I know you'll find it thought provoking. "

" Great book on food, love how the author writes. "

" The title is misleading, it should be Women Food And Spirit. New approach, pleasant read. Did it speak to me? No. "

" to the point and once again I found myself in many parts of the book "

" Loved reading this very inspirational book! "

" I learned some more tools for dealing with my emotional eating issues. I like her humor. "

" Great for anyone with emotional eating problems, which for most women, is what their issue with food usually is. It sounds cheesey, but I love how Geneen Roth's main message is just to love yourself, give yourself a break, take care of yourself by listening to what you need. "

" It list good reason why women eat when they aren't hungry. "

" waste of time:( "

" made me think about the multi-million $ market on weight loss and how women feed it in an attempt to stop "feeding" themselves with the wrong stuff. "

" Makes you think about your relationships and how they have effected the choices you make. "

" Picked this book up because it's on the NYT bestseller list. What a surprise and a book that is useful if you want to get ahead of any compulsion, bad habit in your life. The rules for eating at the end are easily substituted with the name of your favorite disfunction. Easy read -- not preachy! "

" An interesting perspective, and probably right. Compulsive eating really is a symptom of everything else and not really the root problem in and of itself. "

" A lot of mumbo jumbo. Started out OK, but became unrealistic and preachy./ "

" awesome, great, very deep, very true! "

" Have read this book twice...it is compelling and moving "

" I've read all of Geneen Roth's books and really like her philosophy. This short book was a restatement of such, but with more god this time. Because it didn't include a magic pill to fix everything, I guess I'll have to start following her advice. Again. "

" Though there is nothing new in this book - from her other books -- I still liked the reminder about eating (or any addictive/obsessive/ciompulisve behavior) -- and how it is a cover-up for actual feelings which you don't want to face. "

" This book is the voice for the struggle I go through every day! I'm finally realizing that there isn't a magic pill or diet. Instead I need to look inwards. Great for anyone dealing with eating, weight, or just self-esteem. Whether you agree with her or not, I know you'll find it thought provoking. "

" So many great insights. I just wish she didn't swear so much, because she has so many great things to say. "

" Some stuff in here really hit home, but I just felt like the book was randomly put together. I wouldn't even know how to begin to go about applying this system to my life. "

" Not quite what I thought it was going to be, but not necessarily horrible either. "

" The best book I've read on women's relationship with food. "

" Geneen Roth is starting to outdo herself, guys. "

" The title sounds interesting, but the books is really just about compulsive eating and self-help. "

" Replace "food" with a different addiction/obsession and presto! this book could apply to anyone. "

" Wow! I have been talking to everyone about the concepts in this book. For me it wasn't really about women, food or God---it was about why we eat when we are not hungry. And the answer to that question was pretty revolutionary and throws out most traditional dieting "norms". "

" This book had a lot of strong points but I wanted more. I enjoyed it well enough that I will be reading other works Geneen Roth has written. "

" If you actually read past the first 70 something pages, you'll start to get some good stuff. "

" It's like most self help books. Embrace yourself. Don't eat while distracted. Boom, that is the gist of it. "
